"Mohenjodaro's - conservation of the ruins of this great city seems to be outpacing the speed with which the under water level is rising and endangering the ruins."
Ruins! Yes, but worth saving this marvel of the Indus River Valley civilization, the city of MohenjoDaro, arose in what is now Pakistan about 4,500 years ago. MohenjoDaro had some 40,000 residents at their peak in 2500 B.C. The city is in Danger of Disappearing.
